animals that carry pollen between plants

A

pollinator

17
Q

scaly bulbs, short underground stems that have a basal plate that is usually surrounded by modified leaves (tunic)

A

true bulbs

18
Q

similar to true bulbs. However doesn’t have as many layers

A

corms

19
Q

underground growths produce new plants from stems or growing points called eyes

A

tubers

20
Q

These stems grow sideways along the soil or just below the surface. They branch apart to produce new points of growth.

A

rhizomes

21
Q

They look like branches growing along the ground and anchor themselves to the ground and develop roots. And these roots grow into new plants.

A

stolons

22
Q

a form of asexual reproduction in some species of grasses. The
plant produces seed without fertilization.

A

apomixis

23
Q

people who study plants. They often use asexual reproduction
through fragmentation to grow new plants

A

horticulturists
